What have you all seen TESC accept as fulfilling the Humanities Requirement for a degree? I am hoping the A&I Lit exam I'm about to take will do it... Any ideas? (Other than the obvious--Humanities exam Wink )

DSST
Speech / public speaking
Intro World Religions
Art of the Western world
Ethics in America

CLEP
Foreign languages
American Lit
English Lit
Humanities
A&I Lit

Wanted to know if studying the major poets, authors, playwrights, artists, composers and their major works from instantcert is sufficient to pass the test? Any study tips would be appreciated!

Needed 50 and achieved 57 using InstantCert and the CLEP guide example test. The Humanities does have a lot of opera on it though and that was not very prevelant in the study material.
